THE SCHOLAR'S SPELLING ASSISTANT: WHEREIN THE WORDS ARE ARRANGED ON AN IMPROVED PLAN, ACCORDING TO THEIR RESPECTIVE PRINCIPLES OF ACCENTUATION. IN A MANNER CALCULATED TO FAMILIARIZE THE ART OF SPELLING AND PRONUNCIATION, TO REMOVE DIFFICULTIES, AND TO FACILITATE GENERAL IMPROVEMENT INTENDED FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS AND PRIVATE TUITION BY THOMAS CARPENTER MASTER OF THE ACADEMY, ILFORD ESSSEX. Thirtieth Edition, corrected, and the Appendix enlarged and improved. Charleston, S. C. PUBLISHED BY MCCARTER & DAWSON, CORNER OF MEETING AND PICKNEY STREETS. 1861. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1835, BY PHILIP HOFF, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States, for the District of South Carolina. ADVERTISEMENT.

THE first and second American Editions of “The Scholar's Spelling Assistant” having been more generally adopted by Seminaries of Learning, than was originally anticipated, has induced the publisher to offer a Seventh Edition, Revised.

In the Appendix to this, English derivation is extensively considered. The prepositive and terminational particles are critically explained and illustrated. It is hoped, that the view of the Greek and Latin prepositions may prove useful to all classes of learners in determining, in many cases, independent of usage, the English prepositions which ought to follow particular words.

As an inducement to the study of derivation, it may in general be said that many words are derivatives of but a single root, and may therefore be defined by joining the meaning of the root with those of the modifying particles. Ignorance of derivation and its converse operation is undoubtedly a principal reason that children never have a stock of words commensurate with their combination of ideas. Hence they can hardly commence this study too early. They should in deed be put to it as soon as they can read and have learned to distinguish nouns adjectives, verbs, and participles; and be exercised in reducing words to their primitives; in defining them by joining the meanings of the modifying particles first to the primitives, and then to the meanings of the primitives; and finally, in the converse operation, that of determining the words from their definitions. It is by this last exercise chiefly that they can increase their stock of words, and be prepared for the important study of the synonymes and general usage of words.

The body of the work is still printed page for page with the former Editions, and the corrections made so as not to prevent the different impressions being used in the same class.

PREFACE.

THE design of the following work is to furnish young persons with an easy guide to Spelling, and to combine utility with cheapness. In treating the subject, the Author has not only been attentive to the usual classification of words according to alphabetical order and their number of syllables; but he has likewise taken care to arrange the words in separate divisions, according to their respective modes of accentuation, which he considers as an additional, and very material improvement; as the uncertainty of placing the accent, which appears to be the most general difficulty to the young scholar in pronouncing his language, is successfully obviated by this method of arrangement.

As an additional help to ascertain the proper pronunciation of particular words, the equivocal sounds of the letters c, s, and g, are carefully distinguished in an easy and compendious method. Thus the learner will observe that the letter ç with this mark annexed to it, always bears a soft sound like the letter s, as in cell (sell;) and if marked thus [Tc] it is sounded like ts, as in [Tc]haff (tshaff:) [zs] denotes the sound of z as in wi[zs]e (wize:) [jg] represents the sound of j, as in [jg]em (jem;) and G with the cedille affixed, has a similar sound. When such marks are not affixed to these letters, they must be understood to retain their natural and more general sound, as in the words call, house, get. It must be observed likewise that in words where h is printed in the Italic character, it is not aspirated; and wherever any other letter occurs in that character, its sound is dropped. A circumflex over a vowel denotes a long sound, as in bôlt. Where difficulties or irregularities arise, which cannot be thus easily obviated, the scholar is referred to the bottom of the page for a correct pronunciation. The plan itself is doubtless extremely simple. But when the circumstances of those for whom it is professedly designed are considered, this simplicity itself will probably be esteemed a recommendation.

The Author regards the rapid circulation of the preceding editions of this little work as bearing testimony of an extensive approbation among the educators of youth; and he flatters himself that this approbation is founded on a general experience of the utility for the purposes which it professes to serve.

The authorities here principally followed, with regard to orthography, accentuation, and the occasional documents of pronunciation, are the dictionaries of Johnson, Walker, Sheridan, and Bailey. As to the explanatory matter, that of Bailey, with some exceptions, has been selected. But where a concise or satisfactory exposition of a word could not be obtained, the Author has introduced one of his own.

To the spelling lessons he has added a few particulars necessary for the learner to be acquainted with; such as a table of Grammatical Terms, with their Marks and Explanations; another Table of the Contractions of Abbreviations commonly used in print or in writing.

He has likewise subjoined a catalogue of words apparently synonymous; but which are distinguished on a closer view, sometimes by minute, and sometimes by very striking shades of difference. It is not pretended that the distinct significations of these apparent synonymes are ascertained in every instance with etymological propriety or critical exactness. They are frequently exhibited merely according to their popular acceptation, and in a manner which, it is hoped, is accommodated to the ideas and capacities of those persons for whose use the book is particularly intended.

And to render it more unexceptionable to youth of both sexes, the greatest care has been taken to omit words of an impure and immoral tendency; as the minds of youth cannot be too circumspectly guarded against the admission of improper ideas.

On the whole, therefore, it has been his ardent endeavour or render the Scholar's Spelling Assistant as extensively useful as the prescribed limits of the undertaking would permit; and no less acceptable to teachers, than to those for whom it is peculiarly appropriated.

* When any letter or letters in a word are printed in Italics, the sound is dropped in pronunciation.
